The Inner Life
Father Rob Kroll joins Patrick to discuss The Meaning of Easter * (3:11) why is Easter such a big deal for the Catholic Church? * (13:03) Death and Resurrection in our life. How does God work in our own lives? * (16:31) Nick - Happy Easter and the origins. I don't mean to demean it, but I think it sometimes dummies it down. When we look at the English and Germanic origins of it. We take away from the beautiful solemnity of solemnities. Trying to figure out a way to say Happy Easter so it's not so secular, but more spiritual. (21:56) Break 1 * Email – Why is Easter less celebrated than Christmas? * (30:07) Mike - Christmas and more emphasis...a thought occurred to me....it appeals more to the secular interests than Easter. * (33:12) how can we feast well during Easter? (39:42) Break 2 * What can we understand about the Resurrection? * (48:48) Where do we see the resurrection in our earthly world?
